Another vote for rhubarb and custard here. Tried a sugar free version recently but nope they need sugar, lots and lots of sugar

Just came in to say this! I love the originals.

Cherry Drops, without a doubt.

Sweet Peanuts but you can't get them now. They only do ones without a real peanut in the centre & artificial flavouring. Thank you peanut allergic people.

Grannie's old fashioned herbals used to be my favourite from the newsagents before it shut down, no one sells them any more round here now

No idea what they are called but those big glass jars of them you find in garden centres.

Forest fruit somethings...

I'm tempted by sherbert lemons, but am too weak willed not to crunch. Since that ruins the whole point of them I'm going to go with the previously mentioned Rhubard and Custard too (although I'm ok with Sugar Free....Marks and Sparks have some nice ones).

Could we interest you in some sugar free Gummy Bears?

Herbal tablets but I haven't had them in years

I occasionally look at the 5kg tubs on eBay but they'd be gone in a week if I had them.

Just bought 200g

strawberry and cream boiled sweets were pretty good, looked like rhubarb and custard but red and white

id love to see Spangles come back, perticualy the Old English ones with mixed flavours
